The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 175 - Slave Ship
The sound of thunder echoed in that gripping night, the sound of wood from the friction of the ship was heard shrieking deafening. When the crew was able to see clearly back towards the port bridge, they were confused.
"Hey? Did I see wrong? I think there was someone there?" ask one of the crew.
"Don't joke! I just talked to him there's no way I'm hallucinating!"
"Maybe he's hambu–" one of the warriors stopped his sentence when he saw a head rolling under his feet.
"Adrrgh!" He let out a terrified scream, this small class swordsman downed a rough spit when he could see who was behind all this.
"You're looking to die, aren't you?!" shouted one of them while bluffing with his gaze made sharp but the terrifying aura from Xin Fai's body was much more mentally stressful.
The young man raised his sword towards the confinement of the slave girls on the ship. "I just want to let them go."
"You think it's that easy? Don't get big head first, boy! I'm not afraid of you. Just beheading like that who can't!?"
"Hm? I just said I wanted to let them go."
"Not a lot of talk! You all get to that young man!"
The battle on board was fierce, drops of blood flowed on the wooden floor of the ship with the rising sea waves shaking the ship. Xin Fai was just about to decapitate his opponent again before one of them opened a slave cage and took one of them hostage.
"Give up or I'll kill this girl!" The man pulled the girl's hair so roughly without turning his gaze forward fearing that Xin Fai was moving all of a sudden.
Xin Fai released his opponent that he was about to finish off, in an instant dozens of people stormed him in all directions making him have no way to get out.
Not pulling his sword yet again the man who was now holding the slaves shouted loudly. "If you kill my friends I'll kill him!"
Feeling that this way of holding hostage succeeded the swordsman smiled cursed, he began to look at Xin Fai's sword which looked extremely valuable and felt it was no ordinary item.
"You want him to stay safe, don't you? I promise I won't kill him until we get to our destination and you can leave by leaving the sword."
Silently for a while Xin Fai finally retreated while screeching, he was finally able to break free from the dozens of swords laid right before his eyes. After putting his sword on the floor he retreated in an orderly manner to get off the ship.
When Xin Fai had returned to the bridge the black stream warriors were only able to breathe a sigh of relief, they hurriedly told the ship's driver to move immediately.
"If you panic too much as soon as you let your guard down, huh?"
Xin Fai's words naturally invited a lot of questions on the heads of the crew. They began to feel a threat that was so dangerous when the sound of electricity was heard up there.
The swordsman who had been holding the girl hostage raised his head slowly before his eyes widened when he saw hundreds of electrically charged light blades about to stab from above him.
Not yet had time to shout the man's throat had been pierced by the blade of light, with such strength they did not have time to escape the attack. Then in less than ten seconds dozens of lives have been lost leaving the remaining slaves and ship drivers.
One of the girls who managed to survive thanks to him, Xin Fai nodded slowly before finally disappearing behind the residential building.
The blaze seems to have been going on for quite some time and is now beginning to spread to further afield, Xin Fai cursed inwardly as he saw that some members of the White Crow were still seen fomenting the flames all the way to the treasured goods shops. The losses made by them covered not only the casualties, but also the material losses in this village.
Along the way Xin Fai charged his sword so hard that in one slash managed to kill two opponents or at least cripple them. The armour troops that Yong Tao brought were also no less powerful, they were abuzz to destroy the White Crow group that had just entered the battle area.
Their number could be said to be almost half of the number of Demonic Blood Humans in downtown Sanmin but compared to their strength was far superior in terms of strategy.
The ingenuity of the White Crow is seen from the fight between the two camps who continue to pull, even though Yong Tao's side can be said to excel in strength. But still one by one its members began to suffer heavy injuries making the enemy freely intensify attacks blindly.
Feeling the situation began to not improve Xin Fai chose to intervene and was present in the middle of the White Crow warrior.
One of them was perplexed when suddenly Xin Fai came there like a ghost.
"Hi."
The swordsman opened his mouth confused as to what to answer. He had not had time to think before one suspicious move made his life feel in threat.
Yong Tao had just cleared the black flow party on the left wing before his eyes caught the figure of the young man who was now standing amidst the hundreds of White Crow members.
In the next second a shocking thing happened, a high-speed vortex moved wildly slaughtering the people there indiscriminately. Even the great swordsmen did not escape this shocking attack, they tried to escape but the sword inside the vortex continued to move releasing deadly slashes.
"It's no wonder why he could slaughter 500 warriors alone..." Yong Tao could only mutter a little when he saw the sight, he attempted to kill the remaining swordsman using his strength while occasionally glancing towards Xin Fai.
Moments later the young man stopped attacking and noticed the rest of the warriors around him. Feeling that he still had time to beg for mercy some members of the White Crow begged for lives.
"Master please forgive my life, I promise I will be a useful person after this. You can hold my word..." Said. His hands were fused forward expectantly.
"When do the people you burn ask like that, you'll let them live?"
The warrior shut his mouth in fear.
"Then you deserve to die!" Xin Fai did not feel like she had to let go of that one man, after all her life was already too bad to be fixed. Rather than let him continue to live and sin, he thought it was better to end his life at that very second.
Dashed was the man's hope, he resignedly as the swinging sword quickly slashed his neck, some other warriors who were about to beg for life also abandoned their intentions and chose to run or fight with Xin Fai instead of having to die in vain like that man.
"Oh, I didn't think a sad village like this would be visited by a hero like you. Are you Lan An of the Thousand Feet Army?"
